I use 9 systems currently:

  • 5 Gentoo
  • 2 Arch
  • 1 FreeBSD (OpnSense)
  • 1 w11

And the w11 is a work laptop that is getting Gentoo whenever I get a minute, leaving w11 on as small a partition as I can get away with for a once a month check in to intune.

Arch with hyprland, switched from Fedora Sway when I felt like trying something fresh. Installing arch was more difficult than expected since I had a couple weird issues I couldn't really find in the manual, but after a while I got it all figured out.

I agree, i would search the issues on google

I kept having an issue with keys not being valid when trying to install packages. Ended up being an issue with the keyring not being initiated on boot which as far as I could find should happen automatically. No idea if I messed something up or if something else went wrong ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Of the machines I own: 2 are running Ubuntu server (one for hosting a Minecraft server, the other for testing as I'm still relatively new to Linux), a NAS running trueNAS, A laptop running dual boot Windows 10 and Kali, and my main machine running Windows 10 with Kali and Ubuntu running though WSL. As I am typing this, I am installing Mint on one of the drives of my main PC. I've been putting it off for way too long as the majority of the programs and games I use do not have Linux support.

Arch-KDE Plasma and Win11(personal and work respectively) on my desktop. Win10/manjaro on laptop.

I don't suggest arch as a first forray into Linux, requires basic CLI experience for setup and maintenance.

I taste the rainbow myself. Here are my PCs and their OS's:

  • HP Thin Client t520: Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC IOT with Remote Desktop to my university's AVD instances. May downgrade to 10 IoT due to poor performance
  • Gaming PC: Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC IOT 21H2
  • ThinkPad T480: Windows 10 Pro, may replace with IoT in the future
  • Latitude E6420: Linux Mint Debian Edition 6
  • iMac 21.5" 2015: Dual boot macOS Ventura and Windows 11

My study is extremely Windows focused (expects use of Microsoft Project, everything submitted in .docx, etc.) and while it isn't impossible to do it without Windows, I also don't want to impede academic progress with macOS or Linux.

However, I have my Latitude which I've been using the most recently for all other study not requiring Windows, and my iMac I got from ewaste for doing anything needing macOS like jail breaking and syncing music to my iPhone 4s
